Hey guys!
First off, I want to say that there will be a small delay on the update drop: we will most likely upload the build this weekend. It will be a shorter update, consisting of Nate’s first day. Jumping to another route after working on one for a year and a half is always a big whiplash for us… and the fact we haven’t written an...

Hey guys!
Had a super busy February, sorry I’m so late with a post!
Between a week long visit from the in-laws and the yearly crunch around Valentines from my day job, I found myself stretched very thin for time to work on anything.
Not wanting to leave you guys too high and dry, I managed to finish up a new battle test for T...

Hey guys!
It’s been… way longer than I expected (unless you also play Homecoming, than it’s only been a month, hah). When we finished the last update in August of last year, I never expected the following build would come half a year later. But Homecoming took a lot of time, and real life always has a habit of getting in the way.

Hey guys,
Getting pretty close to releasing this update!
We wanted to release it on the 20th, but I think it'll be best for it to come out as usual, on the first/second of month (so, February). Gives me more time to work on all those CGs (and a little WIP preview of it, as a treat.)
Also, some of you might notice Carlos has... "...
Hey guys!
Dev here.
First, I’d like to wish everyone a happy new year. I hope the new year will treat everyone with kindness!
Sorry, no build at this time once again, but with this absolutely gigantic Homecoming update finally shipped and out of the way a few days ago, we can finally fully go back to work on Santa Lucia. Can...

I didn't do that much better mentally this month. I don't want to charge you guys if I haven't done any work at all, so I'm going to pause for this month. Hopefully next month I'll be back to my old self.
Sorry,

Hey guys.
First off, happy Halloween! Dev whipped up a cute piece showing Russell and Soutarou swapping clothes for the holiday which I’m attaching to this post. He’s really proud of it and it’s given us some ideas for fun little pieces we can do in the future.
On a more serious note, we didn’t have a gr...

Hey everyone!
First thing’s first, I want to apologize. We don’t have a build for Santa Lucia or Homecoming prepped yet! ^^’
However, I did manage to put together a small test demo for the battle system I have in mind for The Book of Annwyn. I’ll be attaching that to this post so you guys can check it ou...

Hey everyone!
Sorry for the slightly late report. Had some things that needed to be settled before I felt comfortable writing this.
First off, I need to announce the retirement of our secondary musician and close friend, Lesli. You’ll probably recognize him more by his stage name of Hop-Skip and The Chewtoys. Due to b...

Phew, this update was a doozy. I’m typing this blurb the night of the 2nd at 5 am, finally having finished everything I had do (or so I hope).

Hey guys!
Another month’s passed, and how quickly they seem to fly!
As much as I wanted to have more to show you guys, I’d rather wait until everything I’m working is closer to completion before revealing anything too early. We’re gearing up for Carlos’ update, but I’ve mostly spent most of this month dedicated to personal...
Hey everyone!
It’s June, and without a new build drop this month that means it’s time for another progress report! First thing’s first, I want to announce the winning concepts for the SFW and NSFW side story polls from earlier last month.
For the SFW story, the winner is “Blood on the Snow” featuring Ben ...

As mentioned previously, we wanted to give our highest tier Patrons ($15 Tempest tier) the chance to vote on polls deciding the next side stories we’ll focus on.
We’ve been toying with different ideas for a while now, and we’ve finally settled on something we feel will be fair for everyone.

Hey guys, Devilizer here!
As some of you might already know, April marked my immigration to the USA to finally be with Dzahn (a major part of what caused this build to be delayed another month).

Hey everyone.
It’s funny how quickly plans change in real time. Today I was intending to drop our first grand update on our new development schedule, but in the first week of March Dev and I finally got the good news we’ve been waiting for almost two years for. We finally got the immigration visa for him to live in the United St...

Hey guys.
Yeah, I know it's a bit overdue, but here's the result of the Chris or Kane poll. Kane wins by a landslide, which wasn't unexpected but it's definitely humbling to see the difference.
In the end, this works out better for the Santa Lucia project as a whole. With us recently revealing plans for Last Sorrow, Chris dropping fr...

Hey guys,
Just wanted to put this here as well, some Nate art for his fans! I'd recommend following us on Twitter if you haven't so you can see all our posts there as well, but I think posting it here makes sense as well.
I might also start putting up some Patreon exclusive art whenever I get the time. Not sure how common it'll be, but ...

Today I’m doing the first “progress report” update since our Patreon model change earlier this year.

Hey everyone!
It’s been a while since we’ve released a short story. This one is an extremely important one, too, since it serves as an introduction to the larger narrative at play in the Santa Lucia universe. I can’t wait to hear what you guys think!
We went all out on the production for this story. Dev busted his ass not only ...

The update to the Patreon tiers has gone through. It's important for you to adjust your pledge now if you want to continue having access to our content!

Hey guys! Happy New Year!
This month we decided to tackle some longstanding issues the game has had narratively. A common problem we see people bring up is that they have a hard time getting through orientation on the first day.
